Cleaning the Process Filter
Clogged filters reduce air flow and dryer efficiency. Cleaning frequency depends
on how much material you process and how dusty or full of fines it is.
CAUTION: Hot Surfaces.
Always protect yourself from hot surfaces inside the dryer and hopper. Also
exercise caution around exterior surfaces that may become hot during use.
These include the hopper door frame, the exterior of an uninsulated hopper, the
return air hose and the dryer’s process filter housing and moisture exhaust
outlet.
1 To access the filter, push down
and turn the top of the filter
housing in a clockwise direction
to remove.
2 Remove the filter cartridge from
the filter housing.
3 Clean or replace the filter.
4 Wipe the inside of the filter housing clean, then replace the filter cartridge
into the housing.
5 Line up the slots in the top of the filter housing, push down and turn
counterclockwise until locked into place.
CAUTION: Wear eye protection. If you use compressed air to clean the equipment, you
must wear eye protection and observe all OSHA and other safety regulations pertaining
to the use of compressed air.
